Photography is a way of putting distance between myself and the work which sometimes helps me to see more clearly what it is that I have made.

Generally in New York, people just walk over you with no problem about that. Other countries, people want to resuscitate you, like, after a bit.

The things that I make are that which a person will make. They're not meant to mimic nature. They are nothing but the result of a hand of a person.

Abandoning the project was incredibly stressful after having gone through the process of building the room, installing the kiln, collecting the stones, sitting with the kiln day and night as it came to temperature, experiencing the failures.

The British climate, although it is very wet, it is quite mild in winter. We don't get these severe - generally don't get severe winters.

The main reason I went to digital was because I got time-lapse, video, and still images all in one camera. Having a minimal amount of gear is really important for someone who wants to walk around. That allowed me to have this flexibility to document things in different ways.

It's just that when I work on someone else's land, it makes me aware of the social nature of that landscape.
